is it honestly worth the buy?

I think the explanation is much simpler than that. In the mid-20th century, one of the main notions of what a computer could do was human things but faster. It wasn’t until later in the century that popular culture could imagine robots and computers doing unique things that humans couldn’t do at all (and vice versa).

Not COVID-related, the season was filmed in 2019. They didn’t do any re-shoots. The actors who play minor characters are technically guest stars and are hired week-to-week, so actors are free to do other work and are not obligated by contract to prioritize Discovery’s production schedule.

Since there seems to be too many creators and not enough players, what needs to happen is for Dreams to lean into that, and position itself as a proper game engine.

Is this more like Skyrim - an initial buggy mess, but should not be missed once the bugs are ironed out?

It may reflect Gadot’s limitations as an actor

If you went out to dinner and asked the server how good the ribeye was, and they responded with a long diatribe about how eating meat is bad for the planet and that the rancher they get the meat from is a real asshole, would you find that helpful?

This in insane. If Harry Styles or Tom Holland (or Bernie Sanders, actually) were caught wearing those shoes, everyone would be remarking how fun and cute those chonky flops were, asking each other where they could get a pair of their own, and shouting from the rooftops how innovative that person was for inventing “Hyg…
